Rejected petition Give A-Level students in the UK the same grading as with the new Scottish System

A great deal of uncertainty has been created for A-Level students, given the light of the current Scottish grading scandal.

We would like for the British Government and Ofqual to provide students in England and Wales with their teachers' predicted grades instead of using a flawed algorithm.

More details

As an A-Level student, having incorrectly predicted grades can make the difference between attending my dream University or having my study and work prospects crushed and unable to pursue a subject at University or College.

By failing to act on this, we risk preventing many young people from continuing onto further education and achieving their full potential.
